Continuous-time affine mortality models are useful in the analysis of age-cohort mortality rates as they yield a closed-form expression for survival curves which are consistent with the dynamics of latent factors driving mortality and are well-suited for finance and insurance applications. We...

In this paper, we study the effectiveness of carry trade strategies during and after the financial crisis using a flexible approach to modeling currency returns. We decompose the currency returns into multiplicative sign and absolute return components, which exhibit much greater predictability...

The identification of information problems in different markets is challenging issue in the economic literature. In this paper, we study the identification of moral hazard from adverse selection and learning within the context of a multi-period dynamic model. We extend the model of Abbring et...
